It sounds like your learners are in a very fortunate space this year! I noted your phrase &quot;making sure that the tasks doesn&#39;t take more time than the learning is worth or at the expense of other learning.&quot; and thought Gary&#39;s remark was spot on. &quot; Learning is a purpose for creating and creating is a purpose for learning&quot;. I suspect that creating embeds learning more deeply in our DNA.<br />Mark&#39;s papier mache comment made me laugh, remembering the gossip exchanged as a kid during this activity!<br />Thanks for sharing this<br /><br />DorothyDorothy Burthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16486794203463798461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694010871393891667.post-75232039045812580572017-03-02T11:25:18.958+13:002017-03-02T11:25:18.958+13:00Interesting reflection Kate, the create can have t...Interesting reflection Kate, the create can have the ability to focus more on the activity and sometimes the learning can get lost in the creation eg making paper mache the learners can sometimes think the paper mache is the learning. How do you ensure the learning stays at the front when creating the DLO? Do you use success criteria or a rubric?<br />I really enjoyed our discussion the other day and can see how the create in will really enhance your learning outcome.Mark Maddrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08984026564819493518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694010871393891667.post-82507194582949280182017-03-02T08:54:52.969+13:002017-03-02T08:54:52.969+13:00I enjoyed reading your post Kate.

Learning is a purpose for creating and creating is a purpose for learning. Well done you for identifying time limits for creating!Gary Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141748052738753141noreply@blogger.com
